fix broken SemigroupMonoid transition <>

2018-04-30T13:03:46Z

Turns out that with ghc 8.2.2, the instructions given on the page don't work. And the cppless variant that I had compiles, but into effectively mappend = mappend so it loops. The only way I can see to make it work without cpp is to use mappend = (Sem.<>) which is ugly and a land mine waiting to explode if someone changes it to a nicer mappend = (<>) with a newer version of ghc which will compile it and work ok, while breaking it with 8.2.2. Sigh. I posted to haskell-cafe about this.

semigroup monoid change fallout; drop ghc 7 support

2018-04-23T17:20:13Z

Fix build with ghc 8.4, which broke due to the Semigroup Monoid change. See https://prime.haskell.org/wiki/Libraries/Proposals/SemigroupMonoid Dropped support for building propellor with ghc 7 (as in debian oldstable), to avoid needing to depend on the semigroups transitional package, but also because it's just too old to be worth supporting. If we indeed drop ghc 7 support entirely, some code to support "jessie" can be removed; concurrent-output can be de-embedded, and the Singletons code can be simplified.

changes to allow GPT BIOS boot partitions

2018-01-06T18:48:34Z

* Parted: Allow partitions to have no filesystem, for eg, GPT BIOS boot partitions. (API change) * Added rawPartition to PartSpec, for specifying partitions with no filesystem. * Added BiosGrubFlag to PartFlag. Note that man parted does not list the "bios_boot" flag, but I found it in its html documentation. Other flags may also be missing. This commit was sponsored by Boyd Stephen Smith Jr. on Patreon.

partition table in Info

2017-11-19T19:21:53Z

Diskimage.imageBuiltFor: New property to build a disk image for a Host, using partition table information configured via the new properties hasPartitionTableType, hasPartition and adjustPartition. This lets Machine properties include eg /boot partitions that are known to be needed by the bootloader, and the user can adjust those partitions and add others.

calcPartTable using PartSpec DSL

2017-07-21T20:05:50Z

* Generalized the PartSpec DSL, so it can be used for both disk image partitioning, and disk device partitioning, with different partition sizing methods as appropriate for the different uses. (minor API change) * Propellor.Property.Parted: Added calcPartTable function which uses PartSpec DiskPart, and a useDiskSpace combinator. This commit was sponsored by Thomas Hochstein on Patreon.

Added reservedSpacePercentage to the PartSpec EDSL.
